[Shop-talk] Mice

[mg_garage at comcast.net]

Contrac is the name of the little green blocks that were mentioned.  Their advantage is that they cannot move them to their nest and have to eat them in place, and, as was previously stated, once ingested the mice look for a water source, generally outside, and then die.  I’ve used them for years with much success.

Scott, if you are going to be there to empty the traps, there are live traps that are called "Mice Cubes."  They are as simple as they get and can work great.  But they need to be emptied as they only hold one at a time. 

If not, the other method I use is the TomCat baits at Tractor Supply.  (I'm sure you can get them elsewhere.) 

They are little green blocks that you put behind walls and corners and such.  The mice crew on them, get thirsty, go to water and die (so they don't die in walls.) 

Also, check your local ASPCA.  They often have 'barn cats' that aren't fully domesticated.  They can be relocated to your property.  They take care of anything outside. 

Just some things to think about.
